What year is his car and what tires on the rear? Good car control, S2000 is notoriously hard car to drift as all the power is at the top of the rev range so you have a small power band to use hence all the professional S2K drift cars are forced induction.

Looked like it had good torque in second hence I thought it was a later car. I have a BMW E30 325i shit box for drift practice must make a trip up there soon! My S2 has 18's so getting the wheels to spin in second can be tricky, I mostly leave junctions sideways and leave the real drifting to the E30 just incase I get a little over confident in the Honda

Good work on the videos though keep them coming. . .

Nice controlling there guys and overall very nice drifting!!!

Dont know who the drivers are but !!!

Small question. What kind of suction cup/extension are you using on the camera? How long is the arm,if any?

Cheers and keep it up,
Kostas.

It's a low friction circuit bud. You could dirft a golf cart there is it was rear wheel drive.

Nice video though. keep them coming

My car is standard apart from a cold air intake, the (noisy) tyres are TOYO T1rs.

Yeh i remember you posting that vid originally i would love to have a go on that track too. Maybe you could think about coming up to Oulton on the next one in the summer? would be good to see you again and we could have some fun getting our cars sideways
